The former NSW, Australian and Oceania Amateur Boxing Champion has been in the sport since he was able to walk, had his first fight at the legal age of 10 and has been actively fighting ever since.
The action-packed night at the club on Saturday, September 23, will feature 15 amateur fights and one professional fight which will be the main event between Kazzi and Kittisak Khotpanya.
With five professional boxing fights and over 200 Muay Thai fights under his belt, Khotpanya, 25, will definitely mean business when he enters the ring.
Other fighters will Include NSW Amateur Boxing Champion Luke Nassif from Earlwood, Youssef Wehbe and Riad Taube from Belmore PCYC, Ali Hamdan from Kingsgrove and Max Wiseman from Southside Boxing.
There will also be three female amateur fights, with boxing legends Jeff Fenech and Johnny Lewis expected to be in attendance.
Charlie says his dream is to compete in the 2024 Olympics before turning professional.
“I need to work hard and in doing so, I believe the impossible is possible,” he said.
Charlie’s father and trainer, retired professional boxer, Peter Kazzi says his son was raised in the boxing ring.
“He was boxing while in his nappies,” Peter said.
